How to Find Sessions In RAC Oracle All in One

To find sessions in databases will be helpful to evaluate interim growth in sessions,  to tune the database’s performance, to monitor application connected sessions, etc. Here we are going to show various scenarios to find connected sessions in RAC databases. Here we have a two-node RAC to perform SQL commands. Below are SQL queries with many options.:

WHERE  S.PADDR = P.ADDR AND S.INST_ID = P.INST_ID ORDER BY S.SCHEMANAME, S.OSUSER, S.INST_ID;

NOTE: You can also use the below option in case if you don’t want to hardcode SCHEMANAME in the where clause.

S.SCHEMANAME =’&SCHEMANAME’

Above we tried to capture all options to find connected sessions in RAC but still we have many more options can be used which depends on requirements. According to requirements, you can change columns in the where clause.

We always encourage the technical person to visit section SCRIPTS to get more daily usage SQL commands.
